Breathe, darling

Contributed by drtylilsecret on Monday, 7th January 2008 @ 11:39:26 AM in AEST
Topic: SongLyrics



Comforting arms morph into a straightjacket
And its hold will not let go
Paralyzed in mind and body
She lacks the strength
She lacks the will,
She lacks the hopeto let it go

Its grip too strong around her chest
Theres a suffocating heart inside
Only one way for it to turn to red from blue
And thats his affectionrevived anew

Only his love
Will resuscitate it enough
For the blood to pump
Just once again

Another touch
Another beat
Another touch
Another gasp
Just one kiss
And shell inhale life
Just one breath,
And shell breathe too.

She speaks of tears and hurt,
Of a dilapidated heart.
Only two ways to alleviate the pain
One is him.
The other death.
And shes already traced a vein

With his permission
Shes set free
A noose of braided fantasies
Emancipated, for all eternity
But theres a chain
Around her ankle
Imprisoning her, to misery.

But, with another touch
Theres another beat,
Another touch
Another gasp
Just one kiss
And shell inhale life
Just one breath
And shell breathe too

Once a stare that elicited smiles
Now will only bring a storm
And rain pour out
Tainting trembling lips
A thunder, her choked sobs

Shes been poisoned
Hes got the cure
Shes been poisoned
He is he cure
But the price is much too high
And grandiose wishes cannot afford to buy

Another touch
Another beat
(Fallen shards of a shattered heart)
Another touch
Another gasp
(Oh intertwined theyre a work of art)
Just one kiss
And shell inhale life
Just one breathe
And shell breath too

Itll turn her heart to red from blue,
A merited bliss long overdue

hey, you commented me - and i thank you much.

yes, i still play soccer, and still write a bunch, although not as much. quality over quantity, i think.

and wow. this... this write is amazing. definitely missed you on here! lol. it's.. touching? it's realistic, yet in a very unrealistic, fantasy kind of way. if that makes sense. lots of imagery, pain - yet hope?

any way.. i like it.

i see this is posted under song lyrics, so it's difficult to really assess or comment on this, but it seems to me you really have a clue as to what you're doing and that you have a way with the word. please, if you have the time and the inclination, write me direct at jyamrus@aol.com and send me some of yr poetry to look at. i'd love to see what else you have. send it as a file or copy/paste into an e-mail.
i'd love to read more.
best.

Hi, You commented on my poem
Putting on The Smile earlier and I like to repay the compliment. This is my first day on this site. Anyway I went to your poem list and found that you had just posted this today after some break. It seems to me that if you can break off and come back with something like this then you have a natural talent. It is very emotional and for my first read I give it top marks.
